Adaptations of Arabian Oryx (Desert Habitat)
White body colour reflects sunlight → keeps the body cool in the desert.
Can survive many days without drinking water → gets water from plants + reduces water loss.
Body temperature can rise safely → less sweating → saves water.
Long sharp horns → protection from predators.
Wide hooves → easy to walk and run on loose desert sand.
Adaptation means special features that help a plant survive in its environment.
Plants adapt to get sunlight, water, air, and nutrients efficiently.
Adaptations help plants survive in extreme conditions like deserts, water, cold regions, and rainforests.
Thick fleshy stems to store water (example: cactus).
Fruits are the developed mature ovaries of a flower that contain seeds.
They form after fertilization and help in protecting and spreading the seeds to grow new plants
dispersal
Seed dispersal is the process of spreading or moving seeds away from the parent plant.
This helps plants grow in new places and reduces competition for sunlight, water, and nutrients.
differences between fruits and vegetables
Fertilization in plants is the process where the male gamete present inside the pollen grain fuses with the female gamete (egg) present inside the ovule of the flower.
